At the start of the Easter holidays and the end in sight for a hard work week, an announcement this morning for Terminator Genisys: Rise of the Resistance took me down a surprising path of prejudging things and why I was doing it.

Some classic titles are coming back in Big Box form – Shogun and Fresco from Queen games! This is a limited reprint run with some art and component upgrades. If you ever wanted to play either, check out the Kickstarter!

Pacific Rim fever is high with the second film about to release. The series lends itself well to a miniatures skirmish games, but is Pacific Rim: Extinction the game? This is a great example of a project that sells the hype over the substance.

Fireball Island is one of those classic 80’s games like Mousetrap – lots of fun stuff to play with, but not necessarily fun to play. The crew at Restoration Games are looking to correct this come April 3rd.

A few years ago, Martin Wallace made a very interesting game based on Neil Gaiman’s A Study in Emerald. Within 48 hours, a continuation of that world is being released on Kickstarter in the form of AuZtralia.
